David asked if the protests change her priorities in the ongoing police union negotiations.
Jenny Durkan said it does not.

I asked @MayorJenny and Police Chief Carmen Best what specific evidence exists that the people destroying property last night were from outside Seattle, as they said several times in the last press conference.

If you want to support local black media in this moment, I cannot recommend enough making a recurring donation to the Spokane Black Lens.
Spokane PD has the 13th highest rate if civilian murders by the police - higher than Oakland and Baltimore.
